SPECIAL OFFER ON ‘THE URBAN CHURCH IN LATE MEDIEVAL : ESSAYS FROM THE 2017 HARLAXTON SYMPOSIUM HELD IN HONOUR OF CLIVE BURGESS’, edited by David Harry and Christian Steer Here are twenty-five peer-reviewed essays by leading scholars exploring the distinctive aspects which the urban environment brought to late- medieval religious life.

The essays bring together a wide range of experts on the English Church to reflect on these subjects and to celebrate the influence of the scholarship of Clive Burgess who , for over thirty years , has changed our understanding of religion, religious culture and the men and women whose lives were shaped by belief. The contents are:
